Displaying Json Results

I am new to Squarespace. I want to display info from a third party API that is in json format. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to do it. I tried using Code Block and it shows the code as is on the page. Thanks in advance! 

The first question to answer is what display format would you like it to be in?

JSON can be reformatted with JavaScript into a number of other display formats.

Is the code you mention just the raw JSON output from the API or are you calling the API on the fly and it returns JSON to you in a code block?

Thanks @creedon.

Yes. I tried to reformat with JavaScript. I tried a couple of simple codes in code block but it just displays the code as is in preview and saved mode (I signed up for the business plan and this should not be an issue because of trial/ basic subscription per help center).

The latter option would be awesome, getting real time results from the API. Do you know if it can work in a code block?

Sounds like you turned the Display Source Code toggle on. It should be off to run code.

I have no clue if the API can be used real time. You would need to read up on the docs from the API provider. Many providers charge a fee to use their API and that may vary based on volume of calls.

Thank you, I'll look into it.
